Cumming, GA Sex Crimes Attorney
Georgia Rape Defense Lawyer
In the State of Georgia, dozens of people are convicted of sex offenses each year. Of course, many sex crime arrests are warranted. However, there are a disturbing number of wrongful convictions based on flimsy evidence or the coerced testimony of a young child.
Sex crime convictions carry sobering consequences, both officially, and through the stigma society attaches to convicted sex offenders. This means that, even if your prison sentence for a sex crime conviction
is minimal, you will face a lifetime of consequences if you don't have an attorney who can skillfully refute each charge against you.
If a Georgia prosecutor charges you with any kind of sex offense, a conviction means mandatory prison sentencing and a life-long spot on the sex offender registry. Felony convictions also affect your liberties, such as your right to vote or own a firearm.

Sentences for Sex Offenses in Georgia
State and federal guidelines provide for a lot of different situations when it comes to sentencing people convicted of sex crimes in Georgia.
For example, there are certain penalties for use of a computer in a sex crime, other penalties if the defendant created, distributed, or sold pictures.
However, Georgia has tough penalties for sexual offenses of any kind. These penalties include prison sentences ranging from a few months to a life term without parole; they increase in severity depending on which crime was committed, the level of violence involved, whether a weapon was used, and the age of the victim.
